We've been running Ford products for 3 years now, that includes IMSA, PWC and a multitude of SCCA races, we have run them out of oil when debris cut an oil line at Daytona in the bus stop, we've run them at 280 degrees at Mosport when we had a control error, we've generally beat the living crap out of them and the only failure we've experienced was a cam phaser..that's been it. In fact the "junkyard dog" that Kurt won T2 in at Daytona had 40 thousand miles on the stock engine and trans. Think about that, a 40 thousand mile engine, from a wrecked car, assembled at the factory about 4 years ago beat BMWs, Corvettes and whatever else was out there to win T2 at the SCCA runoffs.
That's freakin' remarkable that in an American muscle car, a survivor from the 60s, in this day and age, you can take a stock engine and whip up on some very expensive import stuff.
All the engines have been torn down, they were all legit, we run them for a 50 hour life cycle before a scheduled rebuild.
Try that with your import car....
In an age where it's not popular to promote American exceptionalism, where anything American is put down, it makes me proud to run Ford products..an Exceptional..American...product.
I amended this because it was not specifically at TC error, that car did not have TC
